Eric,,, coffe and brandy is called carajillo and it is very nice indeed ! particularly during winter ,,, also a popular remedy against the flu ,,, it does not really help but it surely does make you feel better !

by the way discussion of sol y sombra all that reminds me of that old "chigre" where I used to stop for a sol y sombra ( 150 pesetas ) as a the first drink of the evening ,,, _________________splish-splash
